Official title: Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in Japan

This cross-sectional, non-interventional study will assess health-related quality of life in in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in Japan. The study consists of two phases. Phase I is a qualitative study using semi-structured in-depth interviews in participants with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Phase II is a quantitative study using questionnaires in participants with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and a control group of participants who do not have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

  12. Family history of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in participants with diagnosed HCM

    Measured: Baseline

  13. Period from first diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in participants with diagnosed HCM

    Measured: Baseline

  14. New York Heart Association functional classification (self-reported) in participants with diagnosed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

    Measured: Baseline

  15. History of non-drug therapy in participants with diagnosed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

    Percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation, pacing therapy, other surgical therapies

  16. Participant need for support/caregivers in participants with diagnosed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

    Measured: Baseline

  17. Participant current medications for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in participants with diagnosed with HCM

    Measured: Baseline

  18. Patient-reported health-related quality of life assessed by using the European Quality of Life 5 Dimension 5 Level (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire

    EQ-5D-5L consists of five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression, each with five levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and extreme problems. The total score ranges from -0.025 to 1, and higher scores reflect better health status.

    Measured: Baseline

  19. Patient-reported health-related quality of life assessed by using the Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS)

    HADS is an anxiety and depression assessment scale consisting of seven items (rated 0, 1, 2, or 3) related to anxiety (subscale A) and seven other items related to depression (subscale D). The total score ranges from 0 to 14, and higher scores reflect a worse health status.

    Measured: Baseline

  20. Patient-reported health-related quality of life assessed by using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ)

    The KCCQ is a 23-item questionnaire developed to assess HRQoL in patients with congestive heart failure. The KCCQ consists of five domains: physical limitation, symptoms (frequency, severity, and recent change over time), QoL, social interference, and self-efficacy. The total score ranges from 0 to 100, and higher scores reflect better health status.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 1 site in Japan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Participant age (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 20 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06181617, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Jul 2025.
